Rapak is Europe's leading manufacturer of big bags for Intermediate Bulk Containers – IBC's – up to a capacity of 1400 litres with integral valve. Rapak can supply everything needed for this highly efficient method of transporting liquids in bulk including bulk liners, big bags with capacities of 220, 500, 800, 1000 or 1400 litres, dispense fitments including integral valves and logistics services to support the intermediate bulk containers, throughout the whole supply chain process.
Intermediate Bulk Containers, IBC's, are the most cost-efficient volume packaging format for aseptic and non-aseptic liquid and particulate products. Packaging liquids in big bags offers a number of benefits compared to metal or plastic drums including: more flexibility with bag sizes ranging from 220 to 1400 litres; easy filling, transfer and dispensing even for viscous liquids; 25% more pallet space compared to 200 litre drums; elimination of the need for internal cleaning and skinning; a pack down ratio of 5:1 for return loads. When it comes to Intermediate Bulk Containers from Rapak, there is an excellent choice of containers including disposable one way corrugated intermediate bulk containers or reusable plastic or steel intermediate bulk containers.
Also, in the context of Intermediate Bulk Containers, Intaspence™ TRS provides an advanced alternative to conventional stainless steel aseptic totes commonly used in the bulk supply of fruit preparations. The big bag used by Intaspence™ consists of a 1000 litre (or custom size) sterilised barrier bag with an integral valve (a 2" membraned gland). An aseptic filling gland can be provided if needed.
All in all, everything you need for packaging liquids in big bags, with or without integral valves, up to 1400 litres in size, is available from Rapak's range of intermediate bulk container products.
